Luton announces leap in traffic
Luton Airport saw a 14.4% increase in passenger numbers during February 2015 compared to the same month last year.
This follows a record breaking year in 2014 and marks 11 months of consecutive growth at the airport, which is undergoing a £100 million project to increase its annual capacity from 12 million to 18 million passengers by 2026.
Wizz Air, the second largest carrier at the airport, has also announced a new route to Ohrid, the second-largest city in the Republic of Macedonia, beginning in June. This is the 13th new route from Luton to be confirmed for 2015.
The popular route to Waterford in south-east Ireland is due to be reinstated by Dutch carrier VLM next month, with a twice daily service Monday to Friday and a daily service at the weekend.
